#2It's not too surprising. Yes, Germany is slow to adapt to new tech, but they are a car manufacturing powerhouse and are the biggest country in Europe. The whole country is in an everlasting debate about its dependency on car manufacturing, and cars are _very_ important. It would be surprising if they weren't no 1 producer (and probably consumer) in Europe.

Depends on the metric you use. If we take nominal GDP instead of area, Germany is #1 in Europe [0].

If you want to be pendantic: the biggest country by population in the EU. I don't think area has any relevance in the context of this discussion.
